π Ingredients
2 cans refrigerated biscuit dough
1 jar (24 oz) pizza sauce
2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
1Β½ cups sliced pepperoni
1 tsp Italian seasoning
Β½ tsp garlic powder
2 tbsp grated Parmesan cheese
1 tbsp olive oil or melted butter
Optional: sliced mushrooms, bell peppers, onions, or cooked sausage
Fresh parsley, for garnish
π©βπ³ Instructions
- Preheat the oven
Preheat your oven to 375Β°F (190Β°C). Lightly grease a 9Γ13-inch baking dish. - Cut the biscuits
Open the biscuit cans and cut each biscuit into 4β6 small pieces. This creates the “bubble-up” effect as the dough expands while baking. - Build the base
Place the biscuit pieces evenly into the prepared baking dish. - Add the pizza sauce π
Pour the pizza sauce over the biscuit pieces and gently toss everything together so the dough is coated. - Add the cheese π§
Sprinkle about half of the mozzarella and cheddar over the mixture. - Add the pepperoni
Scatter most of the pepperoni evenly throughout the dish, saving some for the top. - Season
Sprinkle Italian seasoning, garlic powder, and Parmesan over everything. - Top it off
Add the remaining mozzarella, cheddar, and pepperoni. Drizzle lightly with melted butter or olive oil. - Bake π₯
Bake uncovered for 30β40 minutes, until the biscuits are fully cooked in the center and the cheese is melted, bubbly, and golden brown.
Important: Check the center before removing it from the oven. If the biscuits are still doughy, cover the top loosely with foil and bake for another 5β10 minutes.
- Rest and serve
Let the casserole rest for 5 minutes. Garnish with fresh parsley and serve hot.
π‘ Pro Tips
Don’t overcrowd the dish with too many toppingsβthe biscuit pieces need room to expand.
Cut the biscuits fairly small for more even cooking.
For extra cheesy pizza flavor, mix mozzarella with provolone.
Add cooked Italian sausage or ground beef for a meat-lover’s version.
A little red pepper flakes adds a nice spicy kick. πΆοΈ
